By doing this, creators and customers speaking on behalf of a brand no lnger disappear from the buying experience beyond the link, but send their audiences to a landing page where they can tell their brand story, curate their favorite products, and get paid for the sales they generate.</p>
<p>Scalable personalization and customization of the product-sharing experience have raised conversion rates by 20%+ while helping deepen the sense of partnership between brands and their creators and customers. Historically, brands were able to succeed with static shops because nearly all traffic and revenue came from traditional paid media channels. But with headwinds in the paid acquisition, brands have to diversify acquisition across a number of channels, with Superfiliate enabling them to optimize the conversion funnel for each unique source of traffic.</p>
<p>Founded less than two years ago by <span>Anders Bill</span> and <span>Andy Cloyd</span>,  the company is already working with some of the top ecommerce merchants, including MudWTR, Florence By Mills, Beam, and Hiya Health.</p>
<p>CEO of Superfiliate, <span>Andy Cloyd</span> said, &#8220;With the rise of the creator economy and proliferation of short-form video, the way people discover products and shop has transformed entirely in the last five years, but the technology at a brand&#8217;s disposal has not evolved in step. We&#8217;re building a platform native to new e-commerce paradigms that empower creators and help brands consolidate disparate tools into one easy-to-use app that is consistent with the brand aesthetic that merchants spend years crafting.&#8221; </p>
<p>&#8220;Superfiliate has created something incredibly needed and special. Companies are quickly trying to identify how to maximize their returns on their marketing, and what Superfiliate has created is a great answer to that need. We are very excited to be a part of that journey,&#8221; said <span>Erik Huberman</span>, CEO and Founder of Hawke Media.</p>

<p>Birdseye’s platform generates marketing plans with step-by-step instructions.&#13;
</p>
<div id="">&#13;</p>
<p>Toronto-based artificial intelligence (AI) startup <a target="_blank" href="https://www.birdseyeglobal.com/" rel="noopener nofollow">Birdseye</a> has secured $500,000 in pre-seed funding as part of its mission to help e-commerce businesses automate their marketing workflows. </p>
<p>The capital came from Ohio-based private equity firm Drive Capital and its $80 million seed program that invests in early-stage companies in Toronto as well as Chicago, Atlanta, Columbus, and Denver. Its portfolio includes the likes of Duolingo as well as Canadian startups Koho, ApplyBoard, and Cyclica. </p>
<blockquote>
<p>”With funding in place, Birdseye is well positioned to level the playing field for growing brands.”<br />– Matt Bogoroch, Birdseye</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Birdseye is entering a saturated market for AI applications in marketing, especially now that enterprises such as Microsoft and Google have taken part in this new wave of generative AI. </p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://betakit.com/generative-ai-will-test-whats-worse-biased-data-or-user-bad-faith/" rel="noopener">Generative</a> AI has been widely used in marketing to create text, video, and image content. However, prior to the recent boom in generative AI, machine learning has been mainly used in marketing to provide <a target="_blank" href="https://betakit.com/marketing-analytics-startup-strategybox-raises-2-million-in-seed-funding/" rel="noopener">competitive intelligence</a> to businesses. Birdseye believes this isn’t enough. </p>
<p>According to Birdseye, its platform goes beyond standard e-commerce analytics reporting, which typically lacks solutions for what to do with the collected data. Birdseye uses AI to automatically generate step-by-step marketing plans.</p>
<p>Each week, Birdseye users receive marketing plans that are designed to be simple to act on. The platform is able to identify which specific product to advertise, who to advertise it to, and which channels to deploy the advertising campaign.</p>
<p>Birdseye also noted that each AI-generated marketing strategy is also accompanied by an expected end result, meant to help businesses pursue marketing opportunities that are most likely to yield lucrative outcomes.  Birdseye’s software integrates with data from various e-commerce and social media platforms, including Shopify, Google, TikTok, Meta, and Klaviyo. </p>
<p><strong>RELATED: <a target="_blank" href="https://betakit.com/hippoc-announces-3-million-to-help-marketers-test-ad-campaigns-using-neuroscience/" rel="noopener">Hippoc announces $3 million to help marketers test ad campaigns using neuroscience</a></strong></p>
<p>Birdseye was founded in 2021 by brothers Matt (CEO) and Adam Bogoroch (COO) as well as Shardul Frey (CTO). Matt and Frey shared a cubicle at KPMG in 2018, where they advised organizations on AI and developed advanced analytics solutions. </p>
<p>At one point in their time at KPMG, Matt and Frey recognized the challenges involved in interpreting data for large enterprises and how small businesses don’t have access to traditional management consulting.</p>
<p>Tapping Adam to join its founding team, Matt and Frey decided to establish Birdseye to provide “sophisticated technology and analysis at an affordable price for small and medium sized businesses.”</p>
<p>Matt told BetaKit that Birdseye is continuing to develop marketing solutions for Shopify brands and the broader e-commerce industry. This $500,000 in new funding will be allocated towards expanding Birdseye’s core engineering team. </p>
<p>“With funding in place, Birdseye is well positioned to level the playing field for growing brands. Our goal is to become the leading ecommerce software for Shopify and ecommerce businesses,” said Matt. </p>

The company knows when a viewer has stopped reading, watching or otherwise engaging with an ad. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Wunderkind has worked with brands like fast-fashion retailer </span><a target="_blank" href="https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/forever-21" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Forever 21</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, media group </span><a target="_blank" href="https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/refinery29" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Refinery29</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and cosmetics company </span><a target="_blank" href="https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/clarins-bd03" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Clarins</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<h2><b>A changing world</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Behavioral marketing strategies like the ones Wunderkind employs — triangulating customers based on a spat of information about people’s interests, age and location (among other things) — is a popular strategy for brands. If you’ve ever been inundated with pet food ads after befriending your new cat-owning roommate, you’ve certainly been the unintended victim of behavioral marketing. (No? Just me?)</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But behavioral marketing, however popular, has been scrambling lately. </span><a target="_blank" href="https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/facebook" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Meta</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and other social media platforms have significantly increased the cost of advertising </span><a target="_blank" href="https://news.crunchbase.com/retail/sexual-wellness-startups-pandemic-cake/" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">after the direct-to-consumer marketing boom</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span><a target="_blank" href="https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/apple" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Apple</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> has made it easier for users to opt out of data tracking on apps. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In addition, the European Union’s data privacy and protection law, known as GDPR, enforces sizable fees to companies that use “invasive” data mining. A lot of behavioral marketing tactics commonly deployed in the U.S. won’t fly in Europe. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Marketing tactics will have to involve getting active consent from users to mine their data, as well as relying less on automation. Perhaps the future will move away from behavioral marketing and more toward contextual marketing — if you’re watching a video about cooking, you may be served cookware-related ads. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">That means brands are often stuck paying more money to target potential customers while being less informed about who those customers actually are. And companies like Wunderkind will have to adapt to being just as effective without being able to rely on cookies or automation. </span></p>
